Drinking Slowly

So me and Paul headed to my local tonight and I practiced my drinking slowly and just had 2 pints when there. But "they" are starting to recognise me as a resident of near here

Battery

And after gym we nipped out trying again to get a battery for my Bioness. As yesterday we tried loadsa places but in the fourth shop they actually sold it. Hooray.

So then we nipped home, had lunch and he tried to change my battery. He is still fiddling with it, no joy

No joy, still no battery

Jeroo

Hmmm, so off to Gym s'morning without my Bioness walking tool. And I can really tell how much I miss it ATM, it is really impressive. Apparently, it is much harder to walk without it

And as we were heading to gym I said "If the lift isn't fixed I can't walking up the stairs" but the blooming thing was fixed so we had a slightly strange class without my Bioness

Battery Crisis

Then this afternoon the battery in my Bioness died. So we went looking, to 3 different places and couldn't get the right size anywhere. So no Bioness walker for 2 days as I am due back there on Thursday

So no Bioness at gym tomorrow either...

OffTopic

Then Sarah Jones the Occupational Therapist came in today and did two things. 1) We cooked some flapjacks because I have got out of the habit. 2) Then we cooked a curry, from scratch, not from a sauce, which was delicious but Timmy couldn't eat Cauliflower so we had to freeze it and eat summat else

New Shop

And today we went exploring to a new shop that Timmy recommended. So about 60% of their stock was no good to me but some of the rest was, and it was so cheap.

I don't think we will have to go every week but eg when I run out of oven chips I can stock up on them and some other

Jim-jim-jeroo

[sigh]I am off to gym again in a bit[/s]

And the flipping lift still wasn't working but the class today was in a downstairs room which I was much more pleased about but it went well

And we forgot to that my leg splint today, and it did feel as if my leg was turning over too much again, so on Wednesday Paul can put it in his pocket and see what happens

Thatcherite

Good lord, after watching a TV program about her whole life I feel to have become a bit Thatcherite, she was well working class and thought "they" should win, not traditional Tory rich gits

Dinner

For dinner tonight we had scrambled eggs, beans and toast. Making the toast was easier than last week, which was easier then...... etc, at last I seem able to marg. my toast from one side to the other

Bye bye David

So then after an hour of chatting to David and taking the mickey out of how much cereal he ate we dropped him off at the railway station for his journey home

Visitor

And today I had a visitor, my big brother came over from Belfast and had a good, chatty, time. We went out and had dinner at Con Passionata which was lovely

Nice Biscuits

Are these although I have onle had 1 because I am on a diet

Grate

And tonight for the first time in nearly 10 years I was able to grate a load of cheese by using my right hand to hold and move the cheese

And the pizzas were extra delicious because of that

Made Me Grin,

and I haven't even had breakfast yet

Someone Else Is Here

Then Freya came down and was nice to me too!!!!!

And it was nice, we picked her up before dinner time then sat, after dinner, talking in the kitchen for a number of hours

She's Here

And Denyse came here at quarter past 10 and until I was mid way thru lunch was sat in the room with Ed and Paul assessing them for.... god knows.

Then she came out, sat at the table with me finishing lunch and discussed loadsa stuff. 

No Birthday Friends

And because I have very few friends me and Ed are nipping to t'pub in a bit to have a birthday drink

And it was well busy, by it's own standards, perhaps 7 people just having a pint!! Now many recognise me and say hiya etc

Warm!!

So I am sat outside ATM wearing just a T-shirt on my top half. It is fine and warm and dandy then the wind strikes up again and it is shiver worthy freezing

(from my phone)

Jeroo

(Sigh)
So I had jim again s'morning. Today we didn't take my splint on purpose as it seems fine and it was. In the gym walking everywhere with my walkystick, just yes
</S>

Sad

So tonight I was sat outside when one of my neighbours pulled up in her car 2 doors away. It was as much as I could do not to call her and her son over and sing them a tune
